VVCEasy by Martin Eesmaa

VVCEasy is that you don't have to compile or/and coding to encode VVC (known as Versatile Video Codec). Simple, Easy, Encode and Decode. It supports Windows, macOS, Linux, BSD, Android & WebAssembly for VVCEasy builds. From 20 October 2021 to 23 June 2022, VVCEasy was pre-release and construction mode. Since 23 June 2022, VVCEasy was initial released on v1.0.0. VVCEasy comes for one-easy command by FFmpeg-VVC, Fraunhofer HHI VVC binaries, uvg266, MPV, LAVFilters with MPC-HC & MPC-BE and more. Installation: Go to the releases and download latest version. Windows source run (Batch-file) (for encoding/decoding, it needs to be manually edit batchfile to modify video file name): [VVCEasy.bat](VVCEasy.bat) Windows/Mac/Linux source run (Csharp): Bin/Release or Debug/netX.x/VVCEasy.exe (after build of C#), this requires VVCEasy.dll to run console application. ### Community | Communities | Link | --- | --- | Matrix chat ![Matrix](https://img.shields.io/matrix/vvceasy:matrix.org) | https://matrix.to/#/#vvceasy:matrix.org Revolt | https://app.revolt.chat/invite/0Y10qHzP Discord ![Discord](https://img.shields.io/discord/974611343237869619) | https://discord.gg/t54cADTbWW Reddit | https://reddit.com/r/VVCEasy lemmy.ml (c/VVC) | https://lemmy.ml/c/vvc lemmy.ml (c/VVCEasy) | https://lemmy.ml/c/vvceasy lemmy.world (c/VVC) | https://lemmy.world/c/vvc lemmy.world (c/VVCEasy) | https://lemmy.world/c/vvceasy *Note: Please note my first language is Estonian and not natively with English language.

[Tears of Steel VVC](https://mega.nz/folder/64swUYxI#WE5njn2aX6-6fxypNC3gtA) [Martin Eesmaa's VVC sample videos](https://mega.nz/folder/C5lFhALL#5fRQfHN4ulzdaq-B33WQ7w) # VLC InterDigital VTM VVC Plugin VLC InterDigital VTM VVC Plugin is an external VVC decoder plugin from third party developer. See [INSTALLVLCPLUGIN folder](INSTALLVLCPLUGIN/README.md). # FFmpeg VVENC/DEC & xHE-AAC support FFmpeg VVC En/Decoder & xHE-AAC supports of Windows, Mac and Linux. See [FFMPEGVVC.md](FFMPEGVVC.md). # MPV libvvdec + xHE-AAC support (Windows x64/Linux/Android only) MPV libvvdec & xHE-AAC supports only of Windows x64, Linux & Android. The VVC and MP4 mux with VVC codec can be played on MPV libvvdec + xHE-AAC version. Only MP4 mixed with VVC supports seek. MPV.NET is also only available for Windows. See [MPV.md](MPV.md). # LAVFilters VVC version x64 For more information about LAVFilters Windows VVC version. See [LAVFilters folder](LAVFilters/README.md) # VVC binaries Versatile Video Codec binaries has two tools of vvenc & vvdec and uvg266. See [VVC.md](VVC.md) # Deprecated builds Those deprecated builds were no new commits/codes after one year. For Bitmovin VVDec Player, see [Bitmovin.md](docs-old/Bitmovin.md). For VLC o266player build, see [o266player.md](docs-old/o266player.md). # Compile for VVCEasy ### VVCEasy Batchfile Version (optional) (Windows only) First, before you compile to VVCEasy Batchfile Version, you need to install Inno Setup before compiling VVCEasy. Inno Setup link: https://jrsoftware.org/isdl.php Step 1: Clone VVCEasy git and open up VVCEasy_compiler.iss file ``` cd %userprofile%\Downloads git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/VVCEasy && cd VVCEasy VVCEasy_compiler.iss ``` Step 2: Press F9 to compile on your keyboard. After compiling, VVCEasy.exe (Installer) can be found on Install folder. ![VVCEasyclickblueplaybutton](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/88035011/153736303-b0949f5a-5ac5-4123-92c5-305211a8aadc.png) --- ### VVCEasy .NET Console Version (optional) First, before you compile to VVCEasy .NET Console Version, you need .NET SDK x64 from Microsoft. Link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download Step 1: Clone git and cd VVCEasy ``` git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/VVCEasy && cd VVCEasy ``` Step 2: When you build, this will restore project first and then compiles. ``` dotnet build -c Release ``` Step 3: Once building is done, the build folder directory is bin/Release ``` cd bin/Release ``` *Tip: You can run VVCEasy without building.* ``` dotnet run ``` ### Publish single .NET binary executable If you want to compile and publish into one portable executable file, you can create if you wish like. ``` dotnet publish -c Release ``` After that, it should be found for example at bin\Release\netX.x\win-x64\publish. # GUI applications (easy) If you're not familiar for using CLI, you can use GUI with application window for ease use and without typing commands on your terminal. These VVC programs of encode/decode are listed: | Programs with website or GitHub link | Note | Creator --- | --- | --- | [Fastflix](https://github.com/cdgriffith/FastFlix) | You might need to download my custom FFmpeg builds for encoding/decoding VVC using external libraries, rename to ffmpeg.exe and ffprobe.exe from my custom names only, no ffplay executable file required | Chris Griffith [VVC-GUI-Encoder](https://github.com/Disa-Kizonda/VVC-GUI-Encoder) | Only encoder | Disa Kizonda [aVVCator](https://github.com/gianni-rosato/aVVCator) | Only encoder & Linux only | Gianni Rosato [VVenCguiEx](https://github.com/rigaya/VVenCguiEx) | Original Japanese language only for instructions and application (you can still translate), only encoder & Windows only, requires Aviutl (this may be medium or hard) | rigaya [VVConvert](https://vvconvert.app/) | Only encoder, encodes to VVC raw bitstream from any FFmpeg compatible video codecs, requires FFmpeg to open input video files | Alec Carter ([source code](https://github.com/alectr0/VVConvert)) [Av1ador](https://github.com/porcino/Av1ador) | This program allows to encode VVC while transcoding by preview and comparison from original video, includes other encoders as well. | porcino # Hard option (deprecated) If you're looking hard option of document information, you can check out there: [docs-old/advanced.md](docs-old/advanced.md) # FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Before you ask any question, see the questions at table please. | Question | Answer --- | --- | **1:** Are you the real creator of VVCEasy? | Yes... but I'm not a real creator of VVC, I didn't built VVC, it was Fraunhofer HHI that he built VVC. **2:** Are you trying to work build of VVCEasy? | Well, yes... it takes longer time to make VVCEasy easier, but VVCEasy is not yet finished until further/update announcement. I don't have employees, so I'm the only one worker. **3:** Is it okay to bring my proof screenshots of errors? | Yes, you can bring error screenshots for your proof. More proof, more easy to solve it. **4:** My question is not listed on FAQ. Can I ask any question to you? | Sure, just go to Issues tab, ask questions or/and give your issue to me, I'd be happy to solve :). **5:** Do you know what you have skills in your programming? | I know about batch file and HTML programming. Some hard programming languages might be difficult for me :/. Update of 19th February 2022: Maybe I should make C# Console program, that will be easy for Windows, Mac and Linux multi support. If you have any questions or/and any issues, please go to Issues tab and create your own issue.
